Doug Hinderer is exploring something so vital — how to make your marriage stronger and more connected through what Greg Schutte calls a Eucharistic Marriage. Trust us, this is all about making your relationship more fulfilling in a really practical way.

Greg is a marriage therapist with nearly 30 years under his belt and has been running Marriage Works Ohio for the past 18 years. He’s also the brains behind a couple of awesome Catholic marriage programs, and his latest one, Building a Eucharistic Marriage, is all about feeding your marriage with the same love that Christ gives us in the Eucharist.

Here’s the deal—Greg noticed that a lot of couples were emotionally starving each other without even realizing it. So, he created a program that’s designed to help couples nourish their relationship, starting with their connection to God. He took the best parts of his previous work and boiled it down to seven key sessions that can really make a difference.

The idea is simple: just like the Eucharist strengthens our bond with Christ, this program helps couples strengthen their bond with each other by bringing that same love into their marriage. And the feedback? Incredible. Some couples even said it saved their marriage. That’s huge!

What’s great about this program is that you can do it on your own, as a couple, or even bring it to your parish. It’s super flexible and easy to access online, so there’s really no reason not to give it a try.

Greg also talks about the everyday stuff that gets in the way—like finding time for each other when life gets busy. His advice? Start small, even just ten minutes a day to connect. It’s those little moments that can make a big difference.

At the heart of it, Building a Eucharistic Marriage is about making time for what really matters—each other and God. It’s about going beyond just keeping your marriage afloat and really thriving together, with Christ right there with you.

So, if you’re looking to make your marriage even stronger, this is the perfect place to start. Let’s get into it and see how you can build a Eucharistic marriage that’s full of love and joy! 💒
